Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 bundt cake, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (18 1/2 ounce) box lemon cake mix (see note below)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) box instant lemon pudding mix
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 (16 1/2 ounce) can blueberries, rinsed and drained well
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • NOTE-I use Duncan Hines because they do not have pudding in the mix as do the Betty Crocker and Pillsbury brands.
  • If you are using another brand, make sure it does not have pudding already in the mix or the texture may not be the same.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan (or use Baker's Joy as I do).
  • In a large bowl, stir together the cake mix, pudding mix and sugar.
  • Make a well in the center and add the water, oil, eggs and cream cheese.
  • Beat on low speed until blended.
  • Scrape bowl.
  • Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • (This will be a fairly thick batter.) Gently stir in the blueberries.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until top is golden brown and cake tester inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in pan 10 minutes, then turn out on wire rack and cool completely.
  • GLAZE: In a small bowl, combine sugar and lemon juice to make light glaze.
  • Drizzle over cooled cake.
  • This is not a heavy glaze.

3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups blueberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Grease and flour a loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl combine the flours, sugar, lemon zest, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Using an electric mixer, mix for one minute at low speed to combine.
  • Combine eggs, yogurt, vanilla and lemon extract in a medium bowl. Lightly whisk to combine. It will look like a creamy yellow yogurt.
  • Add butter and half of the egg mixture to the flour mixture. Mix at high speed for one minute.
  • Add remaining egg mixture in 2 batches, mixing 30 seconds after each addition. Batter should be light and fairly fluffy.

  • Remove from oven and run sharp knife around edges of cake. Let rest 10 minutes. Turn out onto a rack and cool completely.

Tips:

  • Always use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately for consistent results.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy for a tender crumb.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Incorporating the dry ingredients slowly into the wet ingredients helps to prevent overmixing.
  • Fold in the blueberries gently to avoid breaking them up.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting or serving.
  • For a neater appearance, level the cake before frosting.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
